This really seems like a path forward - use the party funds to create social events for voters, particularly young voters. Make some actual third spaces. Create real civic engagement and show some actual *gasp* leadership

UNTIL IT’S DONE, Ep. 4: Sylvia Rivera
In the 1970s, queer New Yorkers had been pushed to the margins of NYC. Our trans neighbors faced immense cruelty. But in Sylvia Rivera, they found a champion.
As we combat Trump’s politics of darkness, her legacy can light the path forward.

I know people are overwhelmed by too much news from every angle, and maybe people are distracted by the "terrorist" language, or just plain exhausted.
But this is the President of the United States saying he is going to go around killing people because he thinks they're criminals. And already did.

The Trump regime is moving to declare all trans people mentally deficient and exempt us from Constitutional rights.
They watched Americans accept our elimination from the government, media, schools and teams, with nothing more than shrugs. Every time they took another step, Americans looked away.
